Note described by Milne as L K (= Emmett 426), but the date is not legible: there seems to be a vertical stroke to the r., as in Ι[Θ] or Κ. D 1159 is supposed to have ‘[L I]Θ’, but that cannot be seen on the rubbing in DS, and D1159 might perhaps be a coin of year 15, or indeed 19 or 20 (but the obv. cannot be read). The obv. on O815 is clearly ΑΥΤ ΤΡ[ ]ΑΝ ΑΡΙ ϹƐΒ - ΓƐΡΜ ΔΑΚΙΚ ΠΑΡ, and the wreath has corn ears. It could be a coin of year 19, since Parthicus was introduced in that year. Confirmation required.
